    I use a 0 degree Phoenix pretty much year round. Even use it set up in the basement. Don't overheat too often but when I do I just add a small gap. Not enough that the mosquitoes can get me!

    Great, that's what I needed to hear, I think the 10 degree will work for me. Now I hope I get a 10% off coupon for my first order. Until then I will rewatch some Shug videos...
    Thanks

    I think you'll be fine. I am a very warm sleeper, and I recently used my 20° UQ with lows in the upper 60's, after hiking in 90° heat all day, and I was fine.

    When you think about it, you probably sleep in 70° temps every night on a mattress that's at least 10" thick. So a 3" thick piece of insulation underneath you probably isn't going to cause you to overheat. Top insulation- now that's a different story!

    I agree, 10 instead of 20. Low weight penalty, easy to vent and prevents saying " I wish I had"...through chattering teeth. You can't warm yourself with what you don't have.

    That's why I went with the 10°, I think I chose wisely... Now the 5 week wait begins. Also bought a pillow, had a harder time deciding which color for that than I did for the under quilt.
    Thanks

    Short length is 73 inches finished (good for folks 5'2" to 5'7")
    Standard length is 78 inches finished (good for folks 5'7" to 6'1")
    Long length is 83 inches finished (good for folks 6'2" to 6'7")

    Never hurts to have a little bit more than you need underneath you. You can't always add insulation underneath when out in the woods

    You should also keep in mind that if you use a pillow for your head, you don't necessarily need additional insulation under your head in the hammock. I'm 6'1", and my 70" UQ covers my entire body (except my head). But I have a pillow, so for me, 70" is full-length.
